THE 4 KEY PERFORMANCE ASPECTS OF AIR-SOURCE HEAT PUMPS IN A COLD CLIMATE ARE HIGH EFFICIENCY, LOW PEAK POWER DEMAND, DEPENDABLE DEFROSTING, AND LONG-TERM RELIABILITY. THE WAYS IN WHICH 3 DIFFERENT TYPES OF HEAT PUMPS (CONVENTIONAL OR < STANDARD > MODELS, < COLD-CLIMATE > MODELS, AND < BURNER-ASSISTED > HEAT PUMPS) MEET THESE CHALLENGES ARE COMPARED AND CONTRASTED IN THE PAPER.
